Interface: HttpHawkAuth

Hawk: the authorization: Hawk … header, a MAC over the timestamp, a nonce, the method, the path and query, the host, the port and, with includePayloadHash, the body. When the vendor answers with server-authorization, the host verifies it (and the payload hash it carries); one that does not verify fails the request with an HttpNetworkError whose network is unknown, the request having reached the vendor. An answer without one is accepted.
